Night Guards

Night Guards in Brooklyn, NY

Protect your smile while you sleep. At Sconzo & Sciascia General, Cosmetic, and Family Dentistry in Brooklyn, NY, we provide custom night guards to help prevent teeth grinding and clenching (bruxism), which can cause tooth damage, jaw pain, and headaches. Professionally crafted night guards safeguard your teeth, reduce discomfort, and promote better sleep.

Why You Might Need a Night Guard

Teeth grinding and clenching often happen unconsciously while sleeping, and sometimes even during the day. Bruxism can be caused by stress, anxiety, sleep apnea, snoring, or certain medications. Over time, it can lead to:

  • Morning headaches and jaw soreness

  • Cracked, chipped, or worn teeth

  • Tooth sensitivity and enamel erosion

  • Loose teeth or TMJ issues

  • Daytime sleepiness

Wearing a custom night guard prevents these problems, saving you money and protecting your oral health in the long term.

Custom Night Guards vs. Over-the-Counter Guards

Over-the-counter night guards often don’t fit properly, which can cause discomfort or even shift your teeth out of alignment. Our custom night guards are precisely molded to your mouth for a snug, comfortable fit.

Benefits of Custom Night Guards

  • Protects Teeth from Damage: Prevents wear, fractures, and costly dental repairs.

  • Prevents Enamel Erosion: Shields teeth from grinding-related thinning.

  • Promotes Comfort: Reduces jaw tension and associated headaches.

  • Easy to Breathe: Keeps your jaws separated for open airways.

Night Guard FAQs

How long does it take to get used to a night guard?

Most patients adjust within a few days to a few weeks. Initial mild soreness is normal as your jaw muscles relax.

 

Over-the-counter guards often don’t fit properly and can cause more harm than good. Custom night guards provide optimal protection and comfort.

 

Clean your night guard daily with a soft toothbrush and mild soap or non-abrasive denture cleaner. Store it in its case to prevent damage.
